However, the brand has now officially announced the GTR 2 new version for the Indian market with the sale billed to commence on May 23. 
The Amazfit GTR 2 new version follows the same pattern as the Amazfit GTS 2 Mini New Edition which was launched in India in April as a trimmed-down version of the GTS 2 Mini. The GTR 2 new edition shares a similar design with the GTR 2 which was launched in India in December 2020.
The new version of the Amazfit GTR 2 features a few differences in the design aspect. The model retains the aluminum alloy fuselage of its predecessor but is available in Lightning Grey and Thunder Black silicone strap options.

The smartwatch comes with support for over 90 Sports modes including outdoor running, walking, indoor cycling, open water swimming, elliptical, pool swimming, climbing, trail running, treadmill, skiing, free training, and outdoor cycling. The watch also comes with activity tracking features such as heart rate, distance, step count, calorie count, sleep tracking, and stress levels.
Other features onboard include Huami’s self-developed BioTracker, Blood-oxygen saturation measurement (SpO2), biological data sensor, accelerometer, gyroscope sensor, geomagnetic sensor, air pressure sensor, and ambient light sensor. The watch also has a 50ATM water-resistant level and supports Bluetooth 5.0 LE, Wi-Fi (2.4GHz), and GPS+GLONASS. The watch has 3GB of storage space for standalone music playback.
Keeping the light on is a 471mAh battery with up to 14 days of battery life with typical use. On heavy usage, the battery can last for 6.5 days while the battery life goes up to 38 days with basic use.
